There's something fishy about this build...

I didn't... I should have though.

It's not too late!!
 
I've been on the fence about clams for a while... I almost broke when @Miami Reef got those golden maximas that turned out green.
All my new small clams were from ORA.


The 3 green ones are Ultra Grade. The blue one is 1st Grade

The 2 blue ones are 1st Grade, and the other is Ultra Gold

From left to right: Ultra Grade, Ultra Grade, Ultra Gold, LFS

This is the tier list: Ultra Grade > 1st Grade > Ultra Gold > Gold

Here are 2 Golds that I got. The first picture is crap, so I put a second picture of them mixed with others prior to mounting them.

I hope this helps.

Fwiw, when people refer to windex/ blue tank- yours isn't included. Your tank is pretty white to today's standards. You can tell by how you can see stuff.
Did you take the teal bulbs out?
I think you were just starting the conversation. But if you really feel how you were saying then get over it/ don't be insecure- your tank is gorgeous and very healthy. Most can only wish to operate a system like that. Be proud!

Thank you!

The thread I made was mostly a joke. I had a thought and decided to share it aloud. I think people like my ramblings… sometimes. Lol

My tank was never windex blue. It was mainly geared for the people who ran 6500K. I don’t know how they do it without browning out their corals — I’ve tried many times.


That teal T5 bulb from Germany was not good. I haven’t used that longer than a month; it was unattractive.
 
Thank you!

Its mostly about water clairity and proper levels and crud. You know, all the fine print.
 
Yes. I mean exactly that. Crud, skim, detritus... whats another?
I don’t know what you intended, but I just imagined finding crud on the bottom of a lawyer’s contract.

I intended to imply the junk we had to do to leep pretty colors befote 14k became a thing.

Like you, I like 10-14k. Currently running pheonix14k bulbs and have a stash of ushio 10k's I've been itching to put on.. corals can take a while to adapt and it really depends on the corals you're getting. Most of the fanciest glow corals are dark brown if you shine a flashlight at them. It's fun trying to see what colors you can get out of them. Most of the old corals look better in whiter light. I've only used t5s for supplement, but with mh brown means give more light- longer duration seems to do the trick.
The collectable section of bc website is packed with white light corals. Look at plugs and egg crate to judge whiteness.

So, if I'm currently fighting with Cyano is it a good idea to add a clam?
